The correct statement which works around the Mandrake 10.1 problem would be:
============================ fix ===============================
%if "%{_vendor}" == "MandrakeSoft"
%{!?without_lzo:BuildRequires: liblzo1-devel >= 1.07}
%{!?without_lzo:Requires: liblzo1 >= 1.07}
%else
%{!?without_lzo:BuildRequires: lzo-devel >= 1.07}
%{!?without_lzo:Requires: lzo >= 1.07}
%endif
============================ snip ==============================
Either way, there would still be an issue with Mandrake as I see that
the lzo package of SuSE 9.1 provides "lzo" not "liblzo".
The problem I have with this patch is that it assumes that Mandrake will
continue to follow the broken behavior. The ideal solution would be one
which doesn't break when Mandrake gets around to using the same standard
LZO RPM spec which everyone else is using.
Yeah, probably the best solution. However, I see that they have been
calling it liblzo1 since their 8.1 distro, and, technically, it is a
library?
The package maintainer has added the missing provide for "liblzo", this
is now in liblzo1-devel-1.08-5mdk.i586.rpm and the
liblzo1-1.08-5mdk.i586.rpm. That would at least clear up some confusion
between liblzo1 vs. liblzo
Where are we on this?
Should we work around this in the openvpn.spec file, or just leave as-is
for 2.0, and wait for the lzo spec to be fixed?
You're not going to see that, at least I doubt it. I'll contact the
maintainer for his views on the subject and perhaps some insight as to
where Mandrake is going with naming (LSB and all).
Okay, though I'll need your best try at a workaround patch for
openvpn.spec very soon to have any chance of making it into 2.0 final.

Give me a date or 24hours warning. I'm still awaiting a response from
the MandrakeSoft package maintainer. If he doesn't answer by the time
you need to freeze, I'll give you what I've got.
